| book description |

Heavy metal pollution is a major concern for all ecosystems where wastewater is present and it has the potential to harm the health of humans, animals and plants wherever it exists. Remediating the adverse effects of these pollutants is thus a significant global challenge that requires the use of the most up-to-date technologies. After describing the various toxic and negative effects posed to humans and ecosystems by heavy metals, this book explores advanced strategies for heavy metal detoxification through microbiological applications, such as bioreduction, bioaccumulation, immobilization and enzymatic remediation. It also considers the various microbes that can be used for the remediation of heavy metals and how advanced technologies like bioreactor technology, nanotechnology, genetic engineering and Artificial Intelligence can be applied for higher heavy metal removal rates. This book analyses the challenges and limitations of these sustainable microbe-based strategies for the removal of heavy metal pollutants from contaminated wastewater. It also provides a valuable resource for practitioners and professionals involved in human, animal and environmental health and those interested in the direction of future research.
